Be Gentle, Quiet and Humble

" Be like a flower ... gentle, quiet and humble."

                         Quote _ Constance La France

Be gentle , 
Quiet and humble,    
Early morning,  a flower quietly rises 
Many people look at how beautiful
 It is inside
And outside 
And wish to be like the flower...
But coming night,  
The flower dries 
And fails  
Down.                                
Sometimes when some people
Fail to Understand the points of views 
Of their  Sisters and  Brothers, 
They will start to blame 
And look at  them 
Otherwise.
It is still part of life 
Which is very hard to  Believe.
Being leading by gentle 
And humble 
Leaders, 
It is always the prayer points  
Of many  people
On earth.  

Be gentle, 
Quiet and humble, 
Sometimes some people becoming 
The cause of their problems. 
When Israelites
Wanted the King,
Prophet Samuel told them 
About the bad qualities 
Of the King who was to come.
But they insisted 
And God sent him to them. 
Later on ,  they started to  blame God 
When king Saul started to illtreat them. 

Be gentle, 
Quiet and humble, 
It is not easy to change a rude , 
Hater and 
Stubborn person. 
As a parent, 
I always pray to God 
To continue keeping  
My kids kind 
And 
Humble so that my tribe
May continue getting 
Best rulers.
